The song is basically about how this world is stuck in one place, and that are “ Mama ” had a different life. So it’s saying are we gonna be stuck like this way forever? ( In war, argument, teen pregnancy, drugs, alcohol, etc )
[Verse 1]
The 80's might as well be 80 AD
A different world for our mama's
Than it is for you and me
And I still don't know who I wanna be
The times are a-changing, it's obvious
The times are a-changing but only so much
[Refrain]
Tell me are we gonna be here forever, forever
Are we gonna be here forever, forever
[Chorus]
Forever, and I've seen it all before
And I'll see it all again forever, forever
And I've seen it all before
And I'll see it all again
Forever, forever
[Verse 2]
Everything before us circles back again
There's problems and there's drugs we use to deal with them
Bottles and liquids and Jesus, pick your religion
And maybe I'm in between twenty-five
But here we all are between death and life
Try as hard as we may and as long as we might
[Refrain]
Tell me are we gonna be here forever, forever
Are we gonna be here forever, forever
[Outro]
And maybe I'm in between twenty-five
But here we all are between death and life
Forever, try as hard as we may and as long as we might
Tell me are we gonna be here forever, forever
Are we gonna be here forever, forever
Forever was written by Playboi Carti & Megan Thee Stallion.
